Smoking Stand
You must be living in a dream world if you are one of the few people left on the planet who think that smoking is not that bad for your health. It has been proven to be one of the leading causes of emphysema and many other breathing disorders among those who smoke. Millions of people have already stopped this terribly hazardous habit and millions of others are trying to quit or at the very least thinking about it. After you have been addicted to smoking for years or maybe even less time, it can be extremely difficult to quit for some.
Another consequence that smokers have to bear other than what they are doing to their own bodies, is what they might be doing to other people as well. There has been a huge uproar among non smokers about the detrimental side affects that they have to be exposed to because of those who smoke. They believe that it is unfair for smokers to be allowed to smoke anywhere and anytime they want to and they are exactly right.
When a person chooses to smoke, that is their own affair and they have the right to kill themselves any way they want to more or less, but that does not mean that they have a right to expose others to the smoke they create and exhale. It is almost akin to saying if I want to urinate in the spot you are standing in, I have a right to. That would just be crazy and no one could deny it. No one, not even smokers would want to stand next to you if you wanted to urinate or worse in public because it would be unhealthy. Smoking is a similar unnecessary thing.
We all have rights, but others have the right to not be affected by your rights. Yes, it can be a very complicated and controversial subject when it comes to who has the right to what, but we have to use a little common sense. If a smoker has a baby or child, they would not want people with the flu to come up and cough and sneeze all over that child on purpose. People who do not smoke themselves or have children, also do not want themselves or their children to be exposed to your cigarette. This is common sense. You have a right to smoke, just not anywhere you like, any time you want.
